CALL FOR PAPERS || The 16th SRMPDS || Edmonton, AB, Canada, Aug. 17, 2020

SCOPE
==================
The 16th International Workshop on Scheduling and Resource Management for Parallel and Distributed Systems (SRMPDS'20) will be held in conjunction with the ICPP'20 - 49th International Conference on Parallel Processing in Edmonton, Canada, August 17, 2020.
Resource management and scheduling is a crucial task on large-scale computing systems. It plays an essential role in the optimization of resources usage. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the areas of resource scheduling and resource management to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and latest research results on all aspects of scheduling and resource management in parallel and distributed systems including Grids and Clouds.

SUBMISSIONS
